Animal species and strains

The research Aanimals are ordered and purchased through LARC only for the QU-IACUC-approved protocols. Currently LARC only supports QU-IACUC-approved protocols that use rodents (rats or mice). Animals obtained from non-commercial certified vendors will not be housed in LARC facility.

If QU researcher or Non QU researcher would like to bring their own animal models from their research labs, they should use quarantine services provided by trusted vendors such as Charles river , Jacksons and submit their health certificate prior to housing in the LARC.
